They should have just made one of the battery inserts compatible with the D2H battery instead of making it optional. Other than that, it's such an improvement over the D200 that I can't say anything bad about it.

I shoot a lot of NCAA sports and some high school. The AF is so quick that it's nearly unrecognizable when it moves. The grip is more expensive, however it offers additional benefits, such as 8 fps and it's ergonomically friendly. The write speed to CF cards is amazingly fast. Here is a gallery of sports images I shot Saturday.http://www.pbase.com/imager1/cal_arizona&page=all
